Yep. It’s a matter of not blocking the view from the front of someone’s house (like when someone parks a big van or truck in front), and it’s also about being able to park in front of your own house. What if you’re bringing back a large load of groceries or other items? What if you have visitors who are handicapped and can’t walk down the street easily?
It’s just a matter of common courtesy to not park in front of other people’s houses whenever it can be avoided, especially if it’s for more than an hour or two.[/quote]
This is probably the main point…I don’t park in the street or the driveway (we actually use the garage), but if you have say a few large SUVs parked right in front of your house, it’s very hard to see when you are pulling out and in. It also is an eyesore and IMO, makes the place look more ghetto as it looks like the area is a rental area…
Yes, it’s a public street (if I could pay and make it private, I honestly would as well to prevent people I don’t know/like to park there)…also, if I could put spike stripes in front of my house so people will stop using my driveway to make a 3 point turn, I’d go there too, but alas, people seem to not think it’s a big deal (unfortunately, I live near a school)…so… unless it happens to you daily where your driveway is marked up like mad from car tires, no one cares really.
oh well, such is life. don’t expect you, spdrun to understand or care really…just bitching as usual (I am).
